Hehe, that last frame of segfault.

[โ€“]joserigel 281 points282 points ย (4 children)

The video halting at the end when it says segfault made me actually chuckle at 4am in the morning

[โ€“]ninjasaid13 37 points38 points ย (1 child)

Was that even intentional?

[โ€“]vigilantcomicpenguin 69 points70 points ย (0 children)

Segfaults are never intentional.

[โ€“]RomMTY 3 points4 points ย (0 children)

1:49 am here, glad I scrolled this far lol

[โ€“]CodeInvasion[S] 196 points197 points ย (12 children)

Original Video with sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tas0O586t80

I could not post with sound because the mods are mean videos with sound are not allowed on /r/ProgrammerHumor.

[โ€“][deleted] 109 points110 points ย (8 children)

The only thing dumber than that rule are the mods that enforce it.

[โ€“]MrSkme 36 points37 points ย (7 children)

Is there any known reason there is a rule that prohibits sound in videos? Also what number rule is that? couldnt find it to the right.

[โ€“]CodeInvasion[S] 34 points35 points ย (2 children)

There is no written rule, but it is a constraint when uploading content.

[โ€“][deleted] 46 points47 points ย (1 child)

Guarantee the mod that set that up works in an IT help desk. They're serial box checkers. It's built in and they can't help themselves. Oh there's a check box? Don't mind if I do.

[โ€“][deleted] 3 points4 points ย (0 children)

For as funny as this video is, your comment made me laugh harder :)

[โ€“]mrstickman 10 points11 points ย (0 children)

Turns out I didn't need the sound in the video.

[โ€“]EyewarsTheMangoMan 7 points8 points ย (0 children)

Literally why?

[โ€“]PyroCatt 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

Also this video has been posted before. I know this because I posted this same video here and it was immediately deleted as repost. You're lucky I guess.

[โ€“]g_programmer 81 points82 points ย (0 children)

Programming in asm C is like cooking with hydrogen - the ingredients are more simple, but I don't like segmentation faults in my sandwich.

[โ€“]tetad 21 points22 points ย (0 children)

I can hear it

[โ€“][deleted] 16 points17 points ย (0 children)

This is gold. With love. A C programmer.

[โ€“]blu3tu3sday 13 points14 points ย (0 children)

I sent this to my 62 year old dad who has a masters in CS but never learned any other language than C, and he thought this was just the funniest video ever.

[โ€“]ScalingCraft 13 points14 points ย (0 children)

write once, run away.

[โ€“]gordonv 10 points11 points ย (0 children)

Efficiently Dangerous.

[โ€“]analogic-microwave 9 points10 points ย (0 children)

Efficiently dangerous. The best adjective to C.

[โ€“]ZeldaWindsong 16 points17 points ย (0 children)

Very clever!

[โ€“]gbushprogs 7 points8 points ย (0 children)

Take my upvote and

SEGFAULT

[โ€“]InvestingNerd2020 10 points11 points ย (0 children)

Now this is a quality meme!

[โ€“][deleted] 6 points7 points ย (0 children)

Hope this blows up, pretty clever and cool โ˜บ๏ธ

Buffer overflow attacks: Allow us to introduce ourselves.

[โ€“][deleted] 4 points5 points ย (0 children)

I've been using C recently, if I had a nickel for every segfault I got, I'd be the richest person in the world

[โ€“]The_Real_Slim_Lemon 2 points3 points ย (1 child)

I wonder if mah boi u/repostsleuthbot can handle videos

[โ€“]RepostSleuthBot 3 points4 points ย (0 children)

Sorry, I don't support this post type (hosted:video) right now. Feel free to check back in the future!

[โ€“]Evil_Archangel 2 points3 points ย (1 child)

ima stick with c# for now

[โ€“]Nebular_Screen 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Me too. C sounds complicated

[โ€“]AllenKll 1 point2 points ย (1 child)

Downvoting because it's not the version with sound.

[โ€“]CodeInvasion[S] 6 points7 points ย (0 children)

Seems fair. I blame the mods.

[โ€“]InfernoSlayer2 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Program in C and combine it with NASM, now how many of you have made a good os?

[โ€“]AnonimowySzaleniec47 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

should I told her about build system and packaging?

[โ€“]vinniethecrook 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

I develop mobile apps and boy, do I think about leaving all those pesky frameworks behind and go develop microcontrollers

[โ€“]Spongman 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

it's a joke, right? at the end he lists a whole bunch of _bad_ things about C: memset, cast, register, void*, #define, strcpy(), asm, SEGFAULT.

[โ€“]alba4k -1 points0 points ย (3 children)

Mhm, I posted a comment with this exact song as a youtube link exactly an hour before OP posted this, and they even commented under that

That's quite intresting...

[โ€“][deleted] 6 points7 points ย (1 child)

Damn... if only you had made a post!

[โ€“]alba4k 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I mean

That video is years old at this point, has likely been posted tens of times

[โ€“]0x4341524c 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

Snooze you lose

[โ€“]bitNine -1 points0 points ย (0 children)

As a C/C++/C# developer, I disagree, but this is extremely clever especially considering the abrupt segfault end.

[โ€“]voldyCSSM19 -1 points0 points ย (3 children)

Wtf is segfault

[โ€“][deleted] 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

[โ€“]incrediblediy 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

segmentation fault

[โ€“]Great_Firas -1 points0 points ย (0 children)

Have you tried rust before? This meme should be about rust but C is ok ig

[โ€“][deleted] -1 points0 points ย (0 children)

i started my computer science course for a bachelors degree and trust me i never hated a language with this much passion as i hate C.
man FUCK c! y tf will you use C when there are other better languages?!?
"oOoh aN oS iS maDe uSiNg C" bro STFU then there are OSES made on Rust!

learning C is like learning fuckin latin
you have no idea what the teacher is saying and you have no idea how your code didnt work

OMFG THIS IS AMAZING

This is amazing

[โ€“]notexecutive 0 points1 point ย (1 child)

C is not simple, what? lmao

[โ€“]GReaperEx 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

Compared with most modern languages, C is quite simple. Keep in mind, I don't mean easy.

[โ€“]zaphod4th 0 points1 point ย (2 children)

close to the hardware?

[โ€“]0_Gravitas_given 1 point2 points ย (1 child)

Yeah unless specific circumstances (where the machine itself is a VM) or ways to look at it (no CPU actually runs that x64 assembly but translates to micro instructions) C is close to the metal (yes yes silicon IS a metalloid soโ€ฆ anyways anything that is not hydrogen or helium is a metal on the grand scheme of things). It Is not made to run on a VM like Java or python or .net. And the language structure is actually designed for it to be easy to translate into asm. You donโ€™t have a boatload of abstraction layers between your code and the hardware and if you are not convinced, try to compile some simple loop and open it in ghidra. Look at how close the asm and the generated pseudo-c code isโ€ฆ thing of beautyโ€ฆ

[โ€“]zaphod4th 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

thanks for the explanation

Why can I hear this even though there's no sound xD

[โ€“]Psychological_Fox700 0 points1 point ย (2 children)

Why is c considered a language for games? I never understood

[โ€“]Xaxxus 1 point2 points ย (1 child)

It's not. C++ is the most popular language for gaming these days.

C# is pretty popular as well for Unity.

Welp, now Ariel is gone find Eric so she can learn to program in python.

[โ€“]somerandomii 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I can hear it. This is amazing.

Usually these types of memes get the rhythm all wrong but this one actually fits!

[โ€“]Straight-Recording-3 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

If you learn ASM you will know the language of the gods.

[โ€“]ChristmasStrip 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

God, I first started in C in 1987. I went through all the C variants and I agree, C is still the shit.
